Peasant studies is one of the most rapidly developing areas of social science, and Teodor Shanin has long been at the forefront of this remarkable revival of interest in peasantry. In "Defining Peasants" he sets peasant studies within the broader context of development theory and the debates focussed on the nature and dynamics of so-called "developing societies" republishing two of the influential papers which laid the foundations of the debate on the nature of the peasant societies and merging new and well-established articles in four major areas - the conceptualization of peasantry, aspect of peasant particularity (the peasant economy, migration, culture, and political action), methodology, and studies of the most influential theorists - Chayanov, Lenin and Kautsky.

The book begins with the forces and elements which came together in the 1905-07 revolution. It analyses the urban struggle, the peasant war and the relations between those two confrontations. It proceeds to the conclusions drawn from the revolution by the different social classes, parties and leaders and the way this has shaped Russia's future.
